The Catholic Herald is reporting Cardinal Sarah’s excellent message
to a liturgical conference in Herzogenrath, Germany, it states: -

“In a message to a liturgical conference in Herzogenrath, Germany, translated
for Catholic World Report by Michael J Miller, Cardinal Sarah praised
Vatican II’s document on the liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilium. But he said the
Council had been followed by a “serious crisis of faith, not only at the level
of the Christian faithful but also and especially among many priests and
bishops”.
The cardinal, who is Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship, said
the “crisis” was particularly visible in the way the Mass has been understood
and celebrated. He argued that many Catholics had neglected “sacred silence”,
and gestures such as kneeling which express reverence for the Blessed
Sacrament. They had also forgotten that the Eucharist is a sacrifice,
“identical to the act performed once and for all by Jesus Christ, making
present the Sacrifice of the Cross in a non-bloody manner”.

He added that the Church had experienced “devastation, destruction and wars”
not only in the liturgy, but also in doctrine, morals and Church discipline.
“More and more voices of high-ranking prelates stubbornly affirm obvious
doctrinal, moral and liturgical errors that have been condemned a hundred
times, and work to demolish the little faith remaining in the people of God,”
he said…. He quoted several times from Benedict’s writings, including his
remark – when Cardinal Ratzinger – that the Church’s crisis was “to a large
extent due to the disintegration of the liturgy”.
Cardinal Sarah suggested that the crisis had followed when God was displaced
from the centre of the liturgy. Instead of directing worship towards the
adoration of God, the Eucharist became dominated by merely human motives such
as “the community’s celebration of itself”.”
